I didn't go to a shop. I just bought a can of PlastiDip from Home Depot, removed my grill, removed the emblem and put on a few coats. Thats it!

ahah! thanks for the idea! Never thought about this. Now I can do smaller and more detail oriented painting.

Plasti-Dip, its the wave of the future man!

OP - when you pulled up the tape did it seperate from the paint well? Or did you pull it before it dried?

Is it better to spray paint or paint the rims with plastidip? Is it possible to do without removing the rims?
